    Hi HN! Since Youtube no longer allows AdBlockers, I built my own extension to get around their video ads. If there is an ad it temporarily manipulates the video; Mutes the volume, sets speed to 10x, and skips it if there is a button.

    uBlock Origin is more than an ad-blocker, it's a general purpose content filter that can be leveraged to hide low-quality content from pages you browse. While the main filter lists can remove mailing list popups and obvious nags, the definition of low-quality content is personal, so one size cannot fit all. I used to have an ad-hoc script to render and publish a personal uBlock Origin filter list, added to all my browsers. The goal of this project is to enable more people to build such a list custom list to filter out low-quality content and nags. Chose from a list of community-maintained…

    Hi HN I built a simple, lightweight ad blocker Chrome extension and wanted to share it with the community for feedback. What it does: Blocks common ads, popups, and banners Handles dynamically loaded content using DOM observation Very lightweight and fast No tracking, no unnecessary permissions Why I built it: I wanted a minimal ad blocker that doesn’t slow down browsing or overcomplicate settings. Chrome Web Store link: https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/ajmonbkfjffgdhhacjm... I’m especially interested in: Performance feedback Bug reports Feature suggestions Thanks…

    Firefox 149 ships adblock-rust (Brave's Rust engine, MPL-2.0) completely disabled with no UI. It's controlled by two about:config prefs with no WebExtension API, so you can't touch them programmatically from a standard extension. This extension gives it a UI: ETP toggle (via browser.privacy API, instant), filter list manager with clipboard helpers for the manual about:config steps, and 8 preset lists. You can also add your own if you so desire.
